Musk said in May he would reverse Twitter’s ban on Trump, whose account on the social media platform was suspended after last year’s attack on the U.S. Capitol.

The comment came as Griffin’s account was banned earlier this month after the U.S. comedian changed her name to Elon Musk. The #FreeKathy hashtag was later circulating on Twitter.
Twitter had also paused its recently announced $8 blue check subscription service last Friday as fake accounts mushroomed.
The fake accounts purporting to be big brands, included those of Musk’s Tesla and SpaceX, as well as Roblox, Nestle and Lockheed Martin (NYSE:LMT).
